TravelBugM Posted August 3, 2013 #1 Share Posted August 3, 2013 We are taking my mom with us next year on the Viking Rhine Getaway cruise. She is beyond excited! Would like to get her a book about the various castles along the Rhine. I've seen mention of such a book, but can't seem to find one. Wondering if anyone has any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

id est Posted August 4, 2013 #2 Share Posted August 4, 2013 You'll be able to buy it in almost every castle. I've bought mine in Marksburg castle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOShrink Posted August 4, 2013 #3 Share Posted August 4, 2013 I found the Rick Steves' Germany book very helpful. There is an excellent map and text about the castles and towns along the Rhine River including the famous Loreley. Id, is it possible to get the book you are referring to ahead of time or only when we get there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cb222 Posted August 4, 2013 #7 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Do not hesitate to buy used books. I buy lots of them and am always amazed at how good their condition is. cb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
